More awsome Dreamcast ports, now in RPG!

It seems to me that the Gamecube is getting the games that makes the Dreamcast awesome. This is another one.

I love this game to death, and have played it 5 times. The shortest I've ever played it would be only 49 hours. This is a long game but it is worth it all.

Now please comment if any of this doesn't sound cool. You are Air Pirates who start by rescuing a pretty young exotic woman accidentally, all you were really wanting to do is loot and plunder a flagship of the richest admiral of the biggest Aramada on the planet. You then go off by yourself to face this armada in true Pirate style. All including ship battles, battles against giant ancient creatures, and treasure hunting.

It's all cool. Though the graphics are Dreamcast graphics, the characters and super moves look like they were made by Peter Jackson, but even then you can skip the cinematics. The gameplay is true RPG; random battles, selecting attack, selecting who you attack and then watching as the attack lands. Though it goes pretty fast, which is a good thing. Then there is the boat battles which are awesome, truly awesome.

If you're a rabid fan of RPGs then you have already played this. If you can stand them, then this game will be good, it's a full RPG in 50 hours with plenty of action.
